PREFACE
In certain cases the Marriage Licence Act Books for the period
covered by this volume only give the names (and sometimes-
only the surnames) of the recipients of the licences. Owing
to difficulties arising out of the war it has not been possible tO'
ampHfy such bare entries by reference to the bundles of Marriage-
Licence Bonds. It is desirable to draw the attention of members
to the fact that such reference will no doubt be again possible in
the near future upon application to the Diocesan Registrar and
payment of the customary fees.
For the convenience of readers the details are here repeated
of the Marriage Licence Act Books and Bonds now remaining in
the Diocesan Registry at Chester.
Dates of the Volumes of Marriage Licence Act Books now
remaining in the Diocesan Registry at Chester.

„ III. May 18, 1624, to March 24, i63i[-2]. (Vol. 57, Rec.

^ The entries at the end of this volume following the entry of licence (John
Baxter and Dorothy Brooke) on the 27th June 1642, and extending to
2ist October 1644, appear to have been irregularly entered, and probably
do not include all the licences issued for this period.

From this date it became the custom to enter up the licences
in the Act Books as and when the affidavits were returned into
the Registry by the Surrogates. The dates therefore overlap a
good deal; this is especially the case between the dates 1733
and 1772.

From January i, 1838, to the present day the Act Books are

The original Marriage Licence Bonds begin in 1661 and are
filed in bundles for each year.
The documents at Chester only relate to licences affecting
residents within the ancient Archdeaconry of Chester, i.e.
all Cheshire, Lancashire south of the Ribble, and the
Welsh parishes of Bangor Deanery. The licences for the
Archdeaconry of Richmond are at Lancaster.

RECORD SOCIETY OF LANCASHIRE
AND CHESHIRE
REPORT FOR THE YEAR 1915-16 (38TH Year)
Read at the Annual Meeting held in the Audit Room of the Chetham
Hospital, Manchester, on the 12th day of December igi6.
During the year ending 30th June 1916 one volume (vol. 70.)
has been issued to the Members ; it is entitled ' Lancashire In-
quests, Extents, and Feudal Aids. Part IIL a.d. 1313-A.D.
1355,' and is edited by William Farrer, Hon. D.Litt. As in
the cases of the previous volumes which have been edited by
Dr. Farrer, the transcript and index of the present one are gifts
by him to the Society, and this volume contains historical matter
of equal interest and value with the former ones.
Owing to the death of Canon Stanning and the illness of
Mr, Pink, who were editing the ' Royalist Composition Papers,'
there has been a long delay in the issue of the fifth volume of
this work. A portion of the volume has been in type for some
years, and it was decided at the last meeting of the Society
to proceed with the editing of it as speedily as possible. The
Council not being successful in finding an editor to perform the
work voluntarily, Mr. Brownbill undertook it as a professional
matter ; and, since the rules of the Society forbid any payment
to be made for editing, a fund was raised by donations from
some members of the Council to provide for the cost of the
editorial work. This fund has been placed to a separate account.
The whole of the volume is in type, with the exception of the
index, and it will be issued to the Members as the second volume
for the year 1916-17.
Mr. Brownbill has completed the editing of the ' Lancaster
Marriage Licence Bonds, 1648-1710,' from the original bonds
which remain at Lancaster, and this work is now ready for the
press. Many of these bonds have suffered from damp and are
in a bad condition ; the Society is indebted to Mr. Brownbill for
his careful performance of a tedious task, by means of which
particulars of these records have been preserved.
Mr. Irvine has in hand a volume of the ' Marriage Licences
for Cheshire, South Lancashire, &c.,' covering the period from
1680 to 1686. This is the seventh volume of this series of
Marriage Licences that Mr. Irvine has edited for the Society, and
iv REPORT OF THE SOCIETY
the Council desire to express their appreciation of his help at a
time when there are other and more important claims on him.
This volume is practically complete and ready for the press.
Mr. Stewart-Brown continues his military service, and the
duties of the Honorary Secretary have been carried on by the
President.
The Council record with regret the deaths of the Rev. John
Sephton, Mr. George Massey, General Pemberton, Mr. Isaac
Marshall, and Mr. G. E. C. Clayton.
The Society is still suffering from the effects of the War ;
we have not had a single new name to add to the list of members
■during the year ending 30th June igi6, and in the same period
there have been ten deaths and resignations ; the number of

REPORT FOR THE YEAR 1916-17 (3qth Year)
Read at the Annual Meeting held at the Chetham Hospital, Man-
chester, on the 14th day of November 1917.
During the year ending 30th June 1917 two volumes (vols.
71 and 72) have been issued to the Members. These are (i),
' Lancashire and Cheshire Cases in the Court of Star Chamber,'
edited by Ronald Stewart-Brown, M.A., F.S.A., and (2), 'The
Royalist Composition Papers, a.d. 1643-1660, so far as they
relate to the County of Lancaster. Vol. V. P to R,' edited by
John Brownbill, M.A.
Captain Stewart-Brown has completed his work under difficul-
ties in the midst of military duties, and the thanks of the Members
are due to him for his loyal service to the Society under very
untoward circumstances. This volume contains references to
many curious incidents that will attract most readers, even
those who are not especially interested in archaeology or history.
Mr. Brownbill has added to his volume an Appendix con-
taining a comparison of the Society's volumes of the Royalist
Composition Papers with the Record Office Calendar, which
gives many additional references. In the concluding volume
of this series the results of this comparison will be stated in
the body of the work.
Among the prospective publications, in addition to (i) the
final volume of the Royalist Composition Papers, we have (2)
the ' Lancaster Marriage Licence Bonds, 1648 to 1710,' to be
edited by Mr. Brownbill ; (3) the ' Marriage Licences for
Cheshire, South Lancashire, &c., 1680 to 1686,' to be edited by
REPORT OF THE SOCIETY v
Mr. Irvine ; (4) another volume of the same, to be edited by
Mr. Irvine ; and (5) ' Abstracts of the Storrs Hall Deeds/ to
be edited by Colonel Chippindall. Dr. Farrer will also place
at the disposal of the Council materials for other volumes, selected
from his collections of Lancashire Manuscripts.
Captain Stewart-Brown continues his military service,
and the duties of the Honorary Secretary have been carried
on by the President.
The Council record with regret the deaths of Mr, Henry Rigg
and Mr. H. H. Smith-Carington.
The Society still suffers from the effects of the War ; this
year, however, it is satisfactory to report the accession of two
new members. The deaths and resignations in the same period
have amounted to six, and the number of paying members now
stands at 126.
The Honorary Treasurer's accounts show a balance in hand
on the 30th June 1917 of £153, 8s. 5d.
REPORT FOR THE YEAR 1917-18 (40TH Year)
Read at the Annual Meeting held at the Athenceiim Library,
Church Street, Liverpool, on the 2gth November igiS.
During the year ending 30th June 1918 no volume has been
issued to the Members, but the printing has been completed
of a further volume of Marriage Licences for Cheshire, South
Lancashire, &c., 1680-1690, edited by W. Fergusson Irvine,
M.A., F.S.A. This will be the seventh of this series of Marriage
Licences edited by Mr. Irvine, and will form Volume 73 of the
Society's publications.
At the Annual Meeting, held on the 14th of November 191 7,
it was decided that it should be left to the discretion of the
President whether one or two volumes should be issued for the
year 1917-18, and under the present circumstances, owing to the
expense of printing and binding, the President considers that
only one volume should be issued for the past year, viz. the
volume of Marriage Licences mentioned above, which it is hoped
will be issued to the Members in a few weeks.
Future volumes will be (i) the Marriage Licence Bonds at
Lancaster, and (2) the final volume of Lancashire Royalist
Composition Papers. Other works suggested include the Cheshire
Protestation of 1642, a volume of Lancashire documents offered
by Dr. Farrer, the Storrs Hall and Blundell of Crosby evidences,
and a further volume of Star Chamber Cases.
Considerable interest has been taken in Vol. 71 (Lancashire
and Cheshire Star Chamber Proceedings) in the United States of
America, where nearly twenty hbraries or institutions are
vi REPORT OF THE SOCIETY
members. The Society has benefited by the sale of fifteen copies
to booksellers in New York.
Mr. William Farrer, D.Litt., and ]\Ir. W. F. Irvine, M.A.,
F.S.A., have been elected Vice-Presidents of the Society.
Capt. Stewart-Brown has been demobilised from military
service, and has again taken up the duties of Hon. Secretary,
which had been carried on, during his three years of absence, by
the President. The Council feel that the Members are greatly
indebted to the President and to the Hon. Treasurer for enabling
the work of the Society to be continued throughout the \\'ar.
The Council regret to record the death on 8th November
1918 of Sir George J. Armytage, Bt., D.L., F.S.A., who joined
the Council in 1898, was a Vice-President from 1902, and Presi-
dent 1905-1909. He was joint editor with Mr. J. Paul Rylands
of the Visitation of Cheshire, 1613 (vol. 58).
During the year there have been no deaths or resignations of
members, and no new members. The number of paying members
still stands at 126.
The Society has now completed forty years of work, and has
issued seventy-two volumes of Lancashire and Cheshire records,
in spite of very inadequate support. It is discreditable that
there are only fifty private subscribers (other than libraries,
&c.) in the two counties upon the list of Members. Unless
much better supported, the Society must be forced shortly to
reduce its publications permanently to one volume a year, or
even less. The Council therefore appeal strongly to members
to make known the value and importance of the Society's work,
and to do all they can to obtain that additional support, without
which transcripts of the many important unpubUshed Lanca-
shire and Cheshire records cannot be obtained or printed. The
Council hope, now that the War is over, that a renewed interest
may be taken in the local history and family records of the two
counties.
The Hon. Treasurer's Accounts show a balance in hand, on
the 30th June 1918, of £285, 6s. lod., against which must be
charged the cost of Volume 73 now in print, but not issued.
A few sets of the Society's Publications are still on hand.
Members can obtain the price of sets or of single volumes by
applying to the Honorary Secretary.
The following is a complete list of the Society's Publications
printed up to the present time : —
